activity of a hostile external environment, while concomitantly, the underlying cells
were flanked and buffered by still other cells. This, in turn, led to differentiation in
cellular function and appearance. As a result, the cells of these organisms began
performing a variety of different functions and taking on a diverse appearance.
(For a more detailed account, see Ch.2, op. cit.).
As evolution progressed, new types of multicellular organisms emerged and
older ones disappeared. More highly developed ecosystems helped transform the
simpler life forms. In time, the living abandoned its cradle, the sea, and began to
inhabit the land. But all this was transpiring on the physical level of planet Earth.
How then, did these evolutionary processes manifest on other planetary levels?
Let us recall that RNA and DNA create their exact replica on the etheric sphere
from the same primary matter existing on the physical level. This copy constitutes the
so-called etheric body of the molecule. A one-celled organism (i.e., a cell) typically
contains a whole array of organic inclusions -Golgi apparatus, mitochondria,
centrioles, endoplasmic reticulum, etc., as well as organic and inorganic molecules.
The latter participate in the intracellular biochemical reactions. Additionally, the
DNA molecules also contain chromosomes produced by the cellular nucleus.
It should be noted that only the DNA and RNA molecules, and the RNA
mitochondria, are capable of opening a qualitative barrier between the physical and
etheric levels. All other inclusions, while capable of influencing (i.e., deforming and
curving) their surrounding microspace, can-not open that barrier.
However, all these deformations together create an exact replica of the physical
cell on the etheric level (see Fig. 26).
